Ingredients

• 4 whole ripe plums
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt
• 0 as desired optional toppings (e.g., whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, mint leaves)

Directions

Step 1

Start by washing the plums thoroughly. Cut each plum in half and remove the pits. Set the halved plums aside.

Step 2

In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, combine the honey, butter, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Heat the mixture gently over low heat or in the microwave until the butter is just melted. Stir to combine into a glaze.

Step 3

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Brush the cut sides of the plum halves generously with the honey glaze.

Step 5

Place the plums cut-side down on the hot grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until grill marks form and the plums begin to caramelize.

Step 6

Brush the skin side of the plums with more glaze, then flip them over. Grill for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the plums from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 8

Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and mint leaves for garnish, if desired.
